Amber Ale (extract)

I Started an Amber Ale tonight. I promised my girlfriend's sister that I would brew her her very own batch. So I went the easy way and did extract.
4 lbs extra pale dry malt extract
4 oz corn sugar
4 oz Crystal 40 (steeping grain)
4 oz Special B (steeping grain).
5 gallons water
1 tsp Irish moss

I steeped the grains in 1 gallon of water at 155 deg F for 30 minutes then added to the boil.

1 oz Kent Golding hops for 60 minute boil

White Labs WLP039 Nottingham Ale English yeast pitched at 80 deg F.

I came out with about 3.6 gallons and an SG of 1.055.
I expect the FG to be about 1.014.
